It looks like it would. I have no idea how much it costs, but it looks identical to the $600 MH-Dezent grille.

If you look at the car sideways, the CLK has a steeper hood line.

Nope not the same. That one is the generic ones being sold that I think doesn't make the car look that good.

E320
I'm interested in the CL grill for my C320 also, but at $600 a pop it's just WAY too expensive.

I'm guessing MH-Dezent just takes one from another MB vehicle and shaves it thinner so it'll fit. In fact that's what it looked like when I saw it close-up once.

the '03 clk grille looks just like the 2002 c-coupe grille.
so maybe the coupe will fit.

If you look closely at the picture, you will notice the C grill is attached to the bonnet. The CLK grill is attached to the bumper cover. It just doesn't look like a simple fit.
